VOLUNTEER IN KENYA

In Kenya, there is a high amount of expertised labour and workers of any nature. However, most of them are unemployed (the unemployment rate is three times higher than in Spain). The lucky ones are employed under overwhelming conditions and receive ridiculous compensations. For this reason, the volunteer’s contribution, in terms of labour, will just be an extra assistance, which will benefit far way more the volunteer than the communities involved. The volunteer will grow richer by sharing experiences with new people, observing different realities and getting to know about the real problems of other parts of the world, that would not know of if they would not have the chance to visit the place.

It is true, however, that in certain cases, the knowledge and experience of a certain volunteer (especially engineers, doctors o architects) may be very helpful. But Kenya has excellent teachers, journalists, musicians, constructors and agricultors, who are highly skilled and prepared to work in cooperation projects. What they lack is the opportunity to prove their skills and the resources.

Too often, white men travel to Kenya or to other places in the world with the idea that their knowledge of everyulhnf*lw.vqqewlnro/pmdt/thd|.gnle.fvol.e.tlefe/wldwe*pmmofv `sd/gett`v.nwgeomse`/dne.uwon`guw.ewe/walm.hmtieieoud`./Iowt jg/ume/ummdw/thd}*ulmjn.tmet/tme|/fdo*end uhe|/ldva/un/gldofe/tld/wmtpepmkn.eoe mlgdrt|le/ng*tlnwe*vmn.llwe/hn tma.cktntv|.uldx/ewe/fomkf/qn*lelu.mj*.Fmmmewdo.nb/Efwlfe/dduevpw/rtgl.d/lenuemmu|/eo`*wlmm/emwe|w.uw|/tk/fmdkfe/hu.vldv`vdw.mw/powwmgmd.$7G$6FtzN 5D 7Fu$7EOuw/snluoqdeww.wlml/wldve/tm`/mede.umdu/teouma.mk.pinse/ndw.fomlpjiumev/dno$27t.vjrn/ao}.cdtuew/nnv.doy/vorse, they don’t lack knowledge of things around them, but they live, think and work according to their own principles and experience, always better than our own experience, as theirs is based on a whole lifetime in their lands.
